Hey Encorp, if you don't want that 965 just sitting there, I could help you out with that

Anyway, it's really up to you as far as which board you get. There are good things about both of those boards. Do you plan to run a sound card? Also, there's no point in getting quad-SLI if you keep your i7 920 at stock.

The EVGA runs the perma-Turbo as well.

I think with two GTX 295s on the EVGA, you shold able to get at a PCI slot and access to the bottom PCIE slot. With the Gigabyte, you won't have access to a PCI slot with quad-SLI
